ASSEMBLY
WARNING: If received assembled,
repeat all steps to ensure your unit is
properly assembled and all fasteners
are secure.
TOOLS REQUIRED
In addition to the 2 hex wrenches pro-
vided with your unit, you will need an
adjustable wrench.
ATTACHING THE TUBE
NOTE: Illustrations within this section
will help in identifying the assembly
steps. Be sure to read each section
and review the illustrations before you
begin. Align the engine with the fuel
cap up as shown below.
NOTE: A drive shaft is located in the
center of the tube. Make sure this shaft
does not fall out of the tube. Dirt on the
shaft will significantly reduce the life of
the unit. If this shaft falls out, clean, re-
lubricate, and re-install.
• Using a hex wrench, insert the 2 tube
mounting screws and nuts as illus-
trated. Keep loose at this time; you
will tighten them during a later step.
• Some units may include a plastic
cover over the end of the tube. If
your unit includes a cover, remove it
by pulling the tab.
• Pull about 1/2 inch of the drive shaft
out of the inside of the tube.
